Reviews for Love Forbidden
The result is rather like eavesdropping on a bright but painfully self-absorbed adolescent's secret thoughts: sometimes fascinating, other times just infuriating.
Love Forbidden ... falls back on a screenwriting convention for its unfortunately abrupt ending, but during its course it suggests that Mr. Marconi, whose second feature this is, possesses a talent and a sensibility likely to flower in the future.
The facile, derivative mind games played here are probably more meaningful for Marconi than they will be for anyone else.
The religious iconography and local architecture make up for the video quality and the flat, zombie-like acting of the supporting cast.
